Market Harborough Story Centre (MHSC) was registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) on 12[th ] May 2022. 

**Objects:** The promotion for the public benefit of the art of storytelling by the provision of opportunities for public education and participation. 

In Accordance with the aims agreed at the last A.G.M., much of our energies this year have been focussed upon trying to secure a permanent base from which to work. To this end, a subgroup of members was formed, a central location was identified, a business case drawn up & the backing of the District Council, other Charities, Neighbourhood Forums and Community Groups was secured. We succeeded in getting the building registered as an **Asset of Community Value** and approached a local Charitable Organisation who were interested in funding the purchase of the building. However, Leicestershire County Council have made known their intention to accept another offer for the building/site. 

Continuing our focus upon partnership working We have led story telling sessions at the Home Start Project in Market Harborough, working with families facing challenges, These have proved highly successful……ref. the following quote from an email received, after one such session ,from the Family Coordinator, Home-Start South Leicestershire: _Thank you and Refections_ 

“I think the afternoon session with the older group went so well.  The room felt engaged, energised, and filled with warmth and fun. B____, one of the mums said to me at the end.  “I really enjoyed the stories.  I feel so relaxed now; I am going to go home and chill out!” Which I thought really showed how much the parents got from the session. 

J____ , the dad who attended, called the office the next day to say how great the story session was and that he and his son would love to come again, and how lovely you all are. 

I thought we had a nice amount with numbers, not too many, just right 8 children and 6 adults.  I think everybody looked engaged the whole way through.  I loved how some children came in reserved and sitting back and by the end were the ones jumping up to volunteer to wear the cape and have suggestions for the stories. 

All three of you have such a lovely welcoming warm energy and the children and parents so clearly responded to this.  It felt welcoming, non- 



judgemental, and relaxed and they were free to join in and speak freely. Lovely to see.” 

With donations received from the Leicestershire & Rutland Freemasons Charity, we purchased a substantial (3m x 6m), steel framed, Gazebo and fulfilled our commitment to running a Story Telling event at the Market Harborough Carnival in June, providing Story Making sessions for children of all ages and separate Story Telling sessions for adults. The Harborough Film Producers also premiered their first film , ’TRUTH & LIES’, this was well received and attracted a more diverse audience and a great deal of discussion! 

The HFP had scripted their second film by October of this year - ‘DOWN THE TUBES’,  This was premiered in December. 

We also ran our annual ‘Gig in the Garden’, sharing songs, stories and reminiscences and held our ‘Open Mic’ story telling at Louisa’s in the town……These events were well attended. 

The Story Centre (including Harborough Film Producers and Chair Art) was one of a number of Community Organisations that took part in an Event which was held to promote Arts and Culture, in its very different forms, in the Centre of Market Harborough. The Charity was able to promote it’s aims and objectives more widely, publicise its activities and workshops, garner more interest in Story Telling, recruit additional members and  gain support for a Community based  Centre to promote  Arts and Culture in the town. 

It was felt that The Story Centre would benefit from an updated information leaflet – this was designed by members and a ‘strap line’ was created which we believe summaries what we do; 

‘We use the Magic and Power of stories To ignite creativity and bring together People, memories, and dreams………… 

Your story matters! How do you want to tell it?’ 

We have used story telling techniques to facilitate reminiscence groups at the Baptist Church Hall and the Methodist Hall in Market Harborough as well as leading a group in Corby – these groups have always proved popular! 

We have continued the personal Story Telling, ‘Recording Conversations’ on  Social Media and intend to develop this further in the coming months. 

As planned, during the months of October, November and December a creative writing course was facilitated, by Diana Bretherick, a local author and member of the MHSC Committee these sessions have proved productive. 



Over the past twelve months, Chair Art (a branch of  MHSC) has held exhibitions and workshops to promote  the idea of Story Telling without words – these have attracted a wide range of age groups.

## **Market Harborough Story Centre Annual General Meeting Charity Nos. 1198936 16[th] January 2025** 

**Attendees: Apologies:** 

Diana Bretherick Alison Rogers Claire Bower(Trustee) Oliver Thompson Kate Chapman (Trustee) Martin Galloway Ron Counte Beryl Galloway Rachel Smyth . Christine Herrick (Trusteee) Eleanor Shepherd (Trustee) Michael Smyth 

1. Christine Herrick, as host, welcomed people to the meeting. 

2. The Trustees Report 2023-2024 was discussed in full and was approved without amendments. 

3. The Annual Accounts to 31[st] March 2024 were circulated, discussed, and approved without amendments. 

4. The current management position of the Market Harborough Story Centre was discussed in depth – due to the sudden, unexpected demise of the previous Chair of Trustees, Sarah Smyth, who was the main driving force behind the organisation and to the resignation of the Treasurer, Michael Smyth and one of the Trustees, Christine Herrick. 

Discussions centred upon whether the current Membership had the capacity to fulfil the objectives of the Charity and exactly how this could be done. 

At the close of discussions, it was proposed that the Charity should continue in its current form for the foreseeable future. This proposal was seconded and voted upon. The motion was carried 6 to 2 

5. The way forward 



The three existing Trustees agreed to continue in post, and it was agreed that the position of Chair of Trustees should be shared - Claire Bowers and Eleanor Shepherd agreeing to use their respective skill sets to fulfil this pivotal role. This was unanimously approved. Ron Counte, a qualified accountant, volunteered to take on the role of Treasurer left     vacant by Michael Smyth. This was agreed unanimously 

It was also agreed that it would be helpful to have some Administrative Support – 

Lisa Hilton has indicated her willingness to help out in this capacity Oliver Thompson (a local fundraiser) has agreed to help and advise with future fundraising applications. Penny Nicholson has indicated her willingness to become more actively involved in the organisational side of The Market Harborough Story Centre. 

These offers of help and support have been gratefully accepted. It was also felt that it would be useful to appoint an additional Trustee - several names were suggested but as yet no one has been approached. 

## 6. Any Other Business 

- Thanks were extended to Mike and Christine for their valuable contribution to the work of The Charity. 

- Tribute was paid to Sarah Ray Smyth for the unstinting time, energy and enthusiasm that she invested in the Story Centre and for the very real difference that she made to the lives of people in Market Harborough. She will be sorely missed. 

## **There being no other business, the meeting closed at 9:35** 




## **What Next – Planned Activities for 20242025** 

Priorities for this year continue to focus on promoting **partnership** working –  Nurturing current successful partnerships and developing new, productive ones.   The vision remains to eventually secure a building from which to operate a wide range of activities promoting Story Making and Story Telling in their widest forms in order to deliver the Charities objectives for the benefit of the Public. Meanwhile, we will continue to host events in hired / shared venues across the town, to this end it is necessary to recruit more active members. 

Over the next few months, we will be aiming to have a greater presence around the town: Pop-up Story Tents in the Market Place (making use of the Gazebo and banners that were purchased last year), story sessions in the local library, the museum and the independent book shop. 

Working in partnership with the British Legion and the local museum to contribute to the 80[th] Anniversary of V.E. Day (the weekend of 11[th] May) with stories and readings from members of MHSC and the local community in the town centre. 

We will continue to contribute to the Reminiscence Group which is held locally each week. 

Before then, one of our members is to deliver a presentation and distribute flyers explaining the activities and purpose of the MHSC at the Culture Café in the centre of town. Another of our members is to speak at The Writers Hub and there will be a further meeting at Louisa’s where MHSC members will share stories and mingle, with the specific intention of nurturing interest and recruiting new, active members. 

Meanwhile, we will continue to develop our Social Media presence – linking relevant websites and introducing an element of interaction to the website. 



We will continue uploading personal stories on the podcast and intend to develop this to include contributions from the local youth theatre group (Parsnips) aged 14+ (who write, interpret and perform their own plays). 

Building on the success of last year, it is planned to hold another Arts & Culture Day in the local theatre, the Church and other community buildings in the town centre– MHSC are committed to contributing to this and hope to recruit further members at the event. 

This year we hope to contribute to the Market Harborough Carnival again, running a story tent and a performance tent together with an open mic.  We will also be showing the latest production from HFP.
